i am deciding between the cooler master 212 plus (not 212 evo since someone say evo ans plus is onlyh 2 or 3C differences, and the 212 plus is on sale on newegg for $20 comppared to $35 for evo), or should i get cheap hydro cooling?

i saw these 5 cheap water cooling ones for ~40 on newegg, i am on a limited budget can spend no more than $50

would any of these outperform the 212 by much since they are budget cheap hydro cooling? if not i'll just get the 212 plus. or other suggestion? i am oc'ing my ahtlon x4 860k from 3.7mhz to 4.5mhz

You won't see much of a difference with the sealed 120.1 coolers vs the simpler solution 212 plus. I have a H80 and a 212 plus. I think the 212 plus has the same temps as the H80 if not a bit better for much less.
 
In that price range you're better off going for an air cooler.
I don't know how much clearance you have for a cooler, but the Xigmatek SD1484 is very nice for $30 :)
